Juventus are interested in Jorginho and hope to sign him in the summer, when he could leave Chelsea as a free agent.
The Brazilian-Italian will be a free agent at the end of this season and several clubs want to incorporate him into their squad.
Juve are hoping they can win the race for his signing and Chelsea seem reluctant to give him a contract extension.
Ideally, this should increase Juve’s chances of adding him to their squad, but that doesn’t appear to be the case.
A report from Football Italia says it is highly likely that he will be heading towards a Stamford Bridge exit. However, a transfer to Juve is unlikely.
This is because he wants to stay in England and Newcastle United could be his next club.
The Magpies are having a good season and want his calming influence and midfield experience as they continue to fight for a top four spot.
This will be a huge blow for Juve because Newcastle have the money to talk them down and they could secure Champions League football if they continue with their current form in the Premier League, which has defied all odds.
